Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flow measurement device technology, and in particular to a flow measurement device for measuring milk production. Background Technology

[0002] In modern dairy milking systems, flow measurement technology must be used to accurately measure the milk yield of a single cow. The flow meter monitors the milk flow rate in real time, and when the flow rate is lower than the set cup removal threshold, the cup removal device is automatically triggered to separate the milk cup and prevent over-milking from damaging the teats.

[0003] Currently, ultrasonic meters can be installed non-destructively outside the infusion tube, and the sensor does not need to be cut or inserted into the pipe. However, the production environment is frequently adjusted, and the ultrasonic meters also need to be repeatedly disassembled and installed, as well as installed outside infusion tubes of different diameters. Traditional installation fixtures have poor adaptability, high maintenance costs after structural damage, and high complexity in on-site debugging of some installation fixtures.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a flow measurement device for measuring milk production to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a flow measurement device for measuring milk production, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0007] A flow measurement device for measuring milk production includes an infusion tube for conveying milk, and an ultrasonic meter for measuring milk flow rate is installed on the outer wall of the infusion tube. A clamping assembly for limiting and fixing is provided between the infusion tube and the ultrasonic meter. The clamping assembly includes a mounting clamp, an adjusting plate unit, and a mounting plate. The mounting clamp is in two sets and is symmetrical to each other. The adjusting plate unit includes multiple sets of rectangular adjusting plates, and adjacent sets of rectangular adjusting plates are in a movable locking relationship. The mounting plate is fixed to the mounting clamp on one side by screws. First fixing posts are fixedly installed on both sides of the outer shell of the ultrasonic meter, and the first fixing posts are fixed to the mounting plate by screws.

[0008] According to the flow measurement device for measuring milk production, one end of the infusion pipe is connected to a tank, a pump is provided between the infusion pipe and the milk tank, and a milking assembly for milking is provided on one side of the milk tank.

[0009] According to the flow measurement device for measuring milk production, the middle position of the two sets of mounting clips is arc-shaped and is fixedly installed with anti-slip pads. The two sets of mounting clips are hollow and each set of mounting clips has a through-hole. The two sets of mounting clips are clamped to the outer wall of the infusion tube with bolts and nuts.

[0010] According to the flow measurement device for measuring milk production, the side of the assembly plate near the mounting clip is arc-shaped, and rectangular blocks are fixedly installed at the four corners of the outer wall of the assembly plate. The mounting clip has threaded holes at the corresponding rectangular block positions, and the screws move through the rectangular blocks and are movably engaged in the corresponding threaded holes.

[0011] According to the flow measurement device for measuring milk production, a second fixing pile is fixedly installed at the middle position of the outer wall surface on both sides of the assembly plate, and a first engaging groove is opened at each of the four corners on the side of the assembly plate away from the mounting clamp.

[0012] According to the flow measurement device for milk production measurement, a third fixing pile is fixedly installed on both sides of the rectangular adjustment plate, a second locking groove is opened at each of the four corners of the side of the rectangular adjustment plate near the ultrasonic meter, and a locking block is fixedly installed at each of the four corners of the side of the rectangular adjustment plate near the mounting clip. Adjacent rectangular adjustment plates are locked together by the second locking groove and the locking block.

[0013] According to the flow measurement device for measuring milk production, the through holes on the first fixed post, the third fixed post and the second fixed post are on the same horizontal plane, the screw moves through the first fixed post, the third fixed post and the second fixed post, and the screw is threaded with a nut.

[0014] This utility model provides a flow measurement device for measuring milk production, which has the following advantages:

[0015] (1) Through the movable locking design of multiple sets of rectangular adjustable plates, the overall length of the clamping assembly can be flexibly adjusted to adapt to different diameter infusion pipes, ensuring that the ultrasonic meter is tightly fitted to the pipeline. The device has flexible adaptability. It adopts multiple mechanical fixing structures such as the first fixing pile, assembly plate, third fixing pile and locking block, combined with screw locking, which effectively reduces the impact of fluid impact or equipment vibration on the metering accuracy. By setting the clamping assembly to adopt a split structure design, it is easy to quickly disassemble the ultrasonic meter for calibration or cleaning, avoiding the disadvantages of traditional welding and integrated structure that require the entire machine to be shut down. By setting the parts to adopt standardized assembly, the complexity of on-site debugging is reduced, maintenance is convenient, and the cost of replacing parts is low.

[0016] (2) The installation clamp is designed with an arc-shaped structure in the middle and an anti-slip pad to increase the contact area and friction with the outer wall of the infusion tube, effectively preventing the installation clamp from loosening. The arc design avoids pipe deformation, ensures that the ultrasonic meter fits tightly with the pipe wall, and ensures the stability of the flow signal transmission. The mounting plate is fixed to the installation clamp with rectangular blocks and screws. When the installation clamp is bent and deformed, it can be replaced separately, reducing maintenance costs.

[0017] (3) By setting the through holes on the first fixed pile, the third fixed pile and the second fixed pile to be on the same horizontal plane, the screw moves through the first fixed pile, the third fixed pile and the second fixed pile, and the screw thread is connected with a nut, the ultrasonic meter, the rectangular adjustment plate and the assembly plate are connected as an integral frame, which significantly improves the resistance to fluid impact. The two sets of rectangular adjustment plates are locked together to avoid offset during installation. The screw pressure is distributed and transmitted through multiple fixed piles to avoid local deformation affecting the fit between the meter and the pipeline, and to ensure the stability of the ultrasonic signal. While ensuring measurement accuracy, it realizes the rapid adaptation and efficient maintenance of the clamping components, which is especially suitable for the scenario of frequent adjustment and high hygiene standards in dairy production lines.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model is a flow measurement device for measuring milk production, including an infusion pipe 10 for conveying milk, and an ultrasonic meter 11 for measuring milk flow rate is provided on the outer wall of the infusion pipe 10. A clamping assembly for limiting and fixing is provided between the infusion pipe 10 and the ultrasonic meter 11. The clamping assembly includes a mounting clip 12, an adjusting plate unit 13, and an assembly plate 17. There are two sets of mounting clips 12, and the two sets of mounting clips 12 are symmetrical to each other. The adjusting plate unit 13 includes multiple sets of rectangular adjusting plates 23. The two sets of rectangular adjusting plates 23 are in a movable locking relationship. The assembly plate 17 is fixed to the mounting clip 12 on one side by screws. First fixing posts 16 are fixedly installed on both sides of the outer shell of the ultrasonic meter 11, and the first fixing posts 16 are fixed to the assembly plate 17 by screws.

[0027] It is worth noting that the ultrasonic meter 11 is used for flow monitoring in the pipeline. The ultrasonic meter 11 is a non-contact ultrasonic meter, model MFU2000, which is existing technology known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0028] Specifically, the overall length of the clamping assembly can be flexibly adjusted through the movable locking design of multiple sets of rectangular adjustable plates 23 to adapt to infusion tubes 10 of different diameters, ensuring that the ultrasonic meter 11 fits tightly with the pipeline. The device has flexible adaptability. It adopts a multi-mechanical fixing structure, including the first fixing pile 16, the assembly plate 17, the third fixing pile 24, and the locking block 26, combined with screw locking, which effectively reduces the impact of fluid impact or equipment vibration on the metering accuracy. By setting the clamping assembly to adopt a split structure design, it is easy to quickly disassemble the ultrasonic meter 11 for calibration or cleaning, avoiding the disadvantages of traditional welding and integrated structures that require the entire machine to be shut down. By setting the parts to adopt standardized assembly, the complexity of on-site debugging is reduced, maintenance is convenient, and the cost of parts replacement is low.

[0029] Among them, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, one end of the infusion tube 10 is connected to the milk tank 14, a delivery pump 27 is provided between the infusion tube 10 and the milk tank 14, and a milking assembly 15 for milking is provided on one side of the milk tank 14.

[0030] Specifically, by setting the infusion pipe 10 to be connected to the milk tank 14, the milk collected by the milking assembly 15 is gathered in the milk tank 14, and the milk is transported through the infusion pipe 10 by the delivery pump 27.

[0031] Among them, such as Figure 3-4 As shown, the two sets of mounting clips 12 are arc-shaped at their middle positions and are fixedly fitted with anti-slip pads. Both sets of mounting clips 12 are hollow, and each set has a through-hole 22. The two sets of mounting clips 12 are clamped to the outer wall of the infusion tube 10 with bolts and nuts. The side of the assembly plate 17 closest to the mounting clips 12 is arc-shaped. Rectangular blocks 19 are fixedly installed at each of the four corners of the outer wall of the assembly plate 17. The mounting clips 12 have threaded holes 21 at the corresponding positions of the rectangular blocks 19. Screws pass through the rectangular blocks 19 and are movably engaged in the corresponding threaded holes 21. Second fixing posts 18 are fixedly installed at the middle positions of both outer walls of the assembly plate 17. First engaging grooves 20 are formed at each of the four corners of the side of the assembly plate 17 away from the mounting clips 12.

[0032] Specifically, the installation clamp 12 is designed with an arc-shaped structure in the middle that works in conjunction with an anti-slip pad, which increases the contact area and friction with the outer wall of the infusion tube 10, effectively preventing the clamp from loosening. The arc-shaped design avoids pipe deformation and ensures that the ultrasonic meter 11 fits tightly against the tube wall, ensuring the stability of the flow signal transmission. The mounting plate 17 is fixed to the installation clamp 12 by a rectangular block 19 and screws. When the installation clamp 12 bends or deforms, it can be replaced separately, reducing maintenance costs.

[0033] Among them, such as Figure 5 As shown, third fixing posts 24 are fixedly installed on both sides of the rectangular adjusting plate 23. Second engaging grooves 25 are provided at each of the four corners of the rectangular adjusting plate 23 near the ultrasonic meter 11. Engaging blocks 26 are fixedly installed at each of the four corners of the rectangular adjusting plate 23 near the mounting clip 12. Adjacent rectangular adjusting plates 23 are engaged with each other through the second engaging grooves 25 and engaging blocks 26. The through holes on the first fixing post 16, the third fixing post 24, and the second fixing post 18 are on the same horizontal plane. Screws movably pass through the first fixing post 16, the third fixing post 24, and the second fixing post 18, and the screws are threaded with nuts.

[0034] Specifically, by setting the through holes on the first fixed stake 16, the third fixed stake 24, and the second fixed stake 18 to be on the same horizontal plane, and the screws moving through the first fixed stake 16, the third fixed stake 24, and the second fixed stake 18, and the screw threads are connected with nuts, the ultrasonic meter 11, the rectangular adjustment plate 23, and the assembly plate 17 are connected into an integral frame, which significantly improves the resistance to fluid impact. The two sets of rectangular adjustment plates 23 are locked together to avoid misalignment during installation. The screw pressure is distributed and transmitted through multiple fixed stakes to avoid local deformation affecting the fit between the meter and the pipeline, ensuring the stability of the ultrasonic signal. While ensuring measurement accuracy, it realizes the rapid adaptation and efficient maintenance of the clamping components, which is especially suitable for scenarios in dairy production lines that require frequent adjustments and high hygiene standards.

[0035] The specific working principle of the flow measurement device for measuring milk production of this utility model is as follows: Two sets of mounting clips 12 are clamped to the outer wall of the infusion pipe 10 with bolts and nuts. The arc-shaped structure in the middle of the mounting clip 12 cooperates with the anti-slip pad to increase the contact area and friction with the outer wall of the infusion pipe 10, effectively preventing the clamps from loosening. The arc design avoids pipe deformation and ensures that the ultrasonic meter 11 fits tightly with the pipe wall, ensuring the stability of the flow signal transmission. By setting the through holes on the first fixed stake 16, the third fixed stake 24 and the second fixed stake 18 on the same horizontal plane, the screw moves through the first fixed stake 16, the third fixed stake 24 and the second fixed stake 18, and the screw thread is connected with a nut, connecting the ultrasonic meter 11, the rectangular adjustment plate 23 and the assembly plate 17 into an integral frame, which significantly improves the resistance to fluid impact. The two sets of rectangular adjustment plates 23 are locked together to avoid displacement during installation. The screw pressure is distributed and transmitted through multiple fixed stakes to avoid local deformation affecting the fit between the meter and the pipe, ensuring the stability of the ultrasonic signal.
